Rush

Rush is a 12-map PWAD for Doom II, created by Arthur O. (Archi) with a final release in July 2014. It is a collection of slaughter maps that are considered relatively easy for the genre. One difficulty guide states that Rush is "the de facto recommendation for getting to grips with slaughter maps."

Custom monster
Rush adds one custom monster, the Hectebus, a powerful mancubus variant taken from Skulltag. It replaces the dead lost soul.

All require Doom II with a Boom-compatible v2.02 source port to view them. The demo levels are:
